Chapter 13, Tag duel.

The next day most of the school had gathered at one of the arenas to watch Robin and Alexis's duel, Chancellor Sheppard had told the entire school that the duel was a special event, no one know that if Robin and Alexis lost they would be expelled.

Robin and Alexis was in a waiting room waiting to be called out, they had spent the last day discussing strategies and combos that they could use with both their decks together, they had also memorised each other's decks in hopes that it could help in their duel.

After several minuets they heard their names called and walked out into the arena, the arena was filled with students ready to watch the duel, Sheppard was in his personal seat overlooking everyone he was watching Robin and Alexis very closely.

Dr Crowler was referring for this duel he stood in the middle of the arena with a microphone in his hand, "And now their opponents, these two once duel against Yugi Muto the king of games, and they have been called here by Chancellor Sheppard himself" said Crowler his voice amplified by the microphone "Introducing Para and Dox, the Paradox brothers".

On the other side of the arena appeared two almost identical men, they both had bold heads and a symbol on their foreheads they appeared to be Chinese, they both wore similar clothes the only difference being the colour one wore orange and the other wore green.

"Greetings children I hope you are ready" said Para, "Because when we work together we are quite deadly" said Dox, Dr Crowler began to speak again "Now then, for those of you who don't now I with explain the rules of a tag team duel".

"Both teams start with 8000 LP, you all have your own field, deck and graveyard, you may not attack someone directory if their partner has any monsters on the field, you may use your partners graveyard as if it was your own, you may use monsters on your partners side of the field as a tribute, synchro or to xyz summon, you cannot use monsters on your partners side of the field to attack or use their effects, you are allowed to know what cards are in your partners hand and you may discuss strategies between each other".

After Crowler finished explaining the rules everyone seemed to understand except for Jaden who was sitting with Syrus, Chumley and Bastion, "Wait, I don't get it" he said, "Why Jaden it's quite simple" said Bastion who then began to explain the rules to Jaden again.

"Now then Robin will go first then Para then Alexis and finally Dox" said Crowler, "And without further ado let the duel begin", the duel started and as all the players drew their cards small holograms appeared in front of them showing each duellist what cards their partner was holding.

Robin started his turn "I summon Lector pendulum the dracoverlord in attack mode and place one card face down, and end my turn" he said.

Para drew his card "I summon Whirlwind prodigy in attack mode and two cards face down, and end my turn" he said.

Alexis started her turn "I play a monster in defence mode and one card face down, and end my turn" she said.

Dox drew his card "First I play one card face down and summon Sangan in attack mode, next I activate Card destruction so we all have to discard our entire hands and draw the same number of cards from our decks" he said, everyone discarded their hands and drew new cards.

Sangan ATK 1000 DEF 600 LV 3 DARK fiend.

Both bothers smiled "Now I activate my face down card Premature burial, this lets me pay 800 LP to summon Sanga of the thunder from our graveyard" said Dox, "And I activate one of my face down cards Call of the haunted to summon Suijin from our graveyard" said Para.

"Now Sanga attack Robin's monster" ordered Dox, Sanga began to attack "Not so fast" said Alexis "I activate Twin twisters, so by discarding one card I can destroy two spell or trap cards, and I chose Premature burial and Call of the haunted, and without those cards your monsters return to the graveyard".

Both Premature burial and Call of the haunted was destroyed taking Sanga and Suijin with them, Para and Dox was both shocked at seeing this, without anything else to do Dox ended his turn.

Robin smiled "Thanks Alexis you really helped me there" he said, "Now then, I summon Maiden of macabre in attack mode, next I use my two level 4 monsters to xyz summon Tornado dragon in attack mode".

Maiden of macabre ATK 1700 DEF 0 LV 4 DARK spellcaster.

"And now I use Tornado dragon's affect, by using one xyz material I can destroy one spell or trap card on the field" said Robin as he destroyed Para's last face down card which was revealed to be Sakuretsu Armor.

"Now Tornado dragon attack Para's Whirlwind prodigy" said Robin, Tornado dragon destroyed Whirlwind prodigy, then Robin ended his turn.

Para/Dox LP 7200 – 600 = 6600.

Para started his turn "I activate Tribute to the doomed so by discarding one card I can destroy your Tornado dragon" he said as Tornado dragon was destroyed, "Next I activate Tribute doll so by sacrificing my brothers monster I can summon a level 7 monster from my hand and I summon Kazejin".

Kazejin ATK 2400 DEF 2200 LV 7 WIND spellcaster.

"And since my Sangan was sent to the graveyard I can add a monster with 1500 ATK or less from my deck to my hand" said Dox as he added Unshaven angler to his hand, "However because of Tribute doll Kazejin cannot attack this turn so I end my turn" said Para.

Alexis started her turn "I activate Machine angel absolute ritual, so by sending Cyber angel Benten from my hand to the graveyard and Cyber petit angel from my graveyard to my deck, I can summon Cyber angel Dakini" she said.

Cyber angel Dakini ATK 2700 DEF 2400 LV 8 LIGHT fairy.

"And since I summoned Dakini you have to send one monster on your side of the field to the graveyard" said Alexis as Kazejin was sent to the graveyard, "Also, since I just tributed Benten I can add a LIGHT fairy monster from my deck to my hand" said Alexis as she added Cyber angel idaten to her hand.

"And now I flip my defence monster to attack mode" said Alexis as her face down monster changed to attack mode revealing it to be Cyber gymnast.

Cyber gymnast ATK 800 DEF 1800 LV 4 EARTH warrior.

"Now both of my monsters can attack you directory, then I'll end my turn" said Alexis as Cyber angel Dakini and Cyber gymnast both attacked the Paradox brothers.

Para/Dox LP 6600 – 2700 = 3900.

Para/Dox LP 3900 – 800 = 3100.

Dox drew his card "I play Soul charge, now I can summon any number of monsters from our graveyard by paying 1000 LP for each one, and the monsters I chose are Sanga, Suijin and Kazejin" he said as the three monsters appeared on his side on the field.

"And now I tribute all three of them to summon Gate guardian" said Dox, "With our ultimate monster we cannot lose" said Para, "I think you two should surrender this duel" said Dox.

Gate guardian ATK 3750 DEF 3400 LV 11 DARK warrior.

"However Soul charge prevents me from attacking this turn so I end my turn" said Dox.

Robin drew his card then turned to Alexis "Alexis I've got a card that can win this but I need a warrior monster to use it" he said, Alexis smiled "Don't worry, you can use my Cyber gymnast" she said.

Robin smiled "Ok, I activate Polymerization to fuse Alexis's Cyber gymnast with the Dark magician from my hand to summon Dark cavalry" he said.

Dark cavalry ATK 2800 DEF 2300 LV 8 DARK spellcaster.

"And for every spell and trap card on the field and in all of our graveyards Dark cavalry gains 100 ATK, and in case you haven't been counting there's one on the field, we've played ten and we've discarded nine, this gives us a total of twenty" said Robin.

Dark cavalry ATK 2800 + 2000 = 4800.

"Now Dark cavalry attack the Gate guardian" ordered Robin, Dark cavalry destroyed Gate guardian.

Para/Dox LP 100 – 1050 = 0.

The brothers was shocked as they lost the duel, many students began to whisper amongst themselves, Chancellor Sheppard had stood up from his char "Impossible, the Paradox brothers duelled against Yugi Muto himself and these two defeated them without losing a single LP?" he said out loud.

Jaden was the first to cheer, then all the other students followed his example and the room was filled with the cheers of all the students and teachers except for Dr Crowler who was left speechless.

After several minuets Robin and Alexis was led away by Professor Banner, once they was far enough away that they could hear themselves speak Banner congratulated them both "Well done children, I never would have thought you could have defeated the Paradox brothers so easily" he said.

"Thanks Professor, so we won't get expelled now will we?" asked Alexis, "Don't worry Chancellor Sheppard agreed to keep his promise, and he is amazed at your skills, tell me have you two ever duelled together before" said Banner.

"No, this is our first time" said Robin, Banner smiled "Well at least you know who to partner with if we ever have a tag team tournament" he said as he led the two of them back to their dorms.

Several hours later Crowler was having a tantrum in his office "WHAT WAS YOU THINKING" he shouted to himself as he throw papers across the room "YOU COULD HAVE GOTTEN ALEXIS EXPELLED".

Crowler punched a wall as hard as he could then grabbed his hand in pain, "Think there must be a better way to get rid of those two" he thought, after a few minutes he sighed "No, No it's not worth it, if I keep this up I'll end up losing a valuable student".

"Ok then, I'll stop trying to expel Jaden and Robin, at least Robin's grades are high, I just hope Jaden starts paying attention and starts improving his test scores" he thought.
